laptop/usb drive issue

Got a problem with my laptop, my machine is a 17” Sony Vaio and whilst each usb port works fine with a mouse and/or an external drive if I plug two external drives in then the laptop can see both but will not copy between them.
Both drives are externally powered and still didn’t work when I inserted a powered usb hub between one drive and the laptop so I think that rules out usb power supply issues and the drives work perfectly when plugged into a desktop.
Any thoughts?
